Abstract

Snayu, sira, peshi are described in Rachana Sharir. These represent the anatomical structures in Ayurved. Marma is a special concept described in Susrut Samhita. It elaborates certain vital points in the body which if injured lead to death or certain symptoms as per the anatomical constitution. These marma are divided into various types as per the ayurvedic anatomical structure. Snayu marma is one such type. Ansa marma is one of the snayu marma situated in the shoulder region. Its covers an area of half finger breadth. If injured it leads to non functioning of upper limb. There are different modern anatomical structures in this region. However only the definite anatomical structure will give rise to related symptom. Trapezius covers the maximum part of shoulder.
